Sanders getting FWD status would be ideal.Going for a rookie reshuffle in the hope Sanders does get fwd dpp and can switch him forward. Means I need a better midfield rookie to replace him on field.
Reid - Gallagher
Campbell - Sharp
Had Sharp all PS and was another one I ditched to upgrade Gawn to Marshall. That has worked a treat! Only cost me about 300 points already that decision.
He’s still got plenty of catch to make and looks to have strong JS.

Any thoughts on what to do? Obviously potato Billings goes...
1. Billings to Thomas & Windhager can go to any defender up to $895k. Stewart/NWM/Clark/Yeo
2. Billings to Dempsey & Windhager to Yeo
3. Billings to Dempsey & bench rookie to Thomas for his quick cash gen. I'd have to wear a Howes/Hore score this week. Which of the 5 bench mids & fwds would you turf though as all making money at varying speeds...
4. Any other suggestions?
Jordon needs to go next week probably to Flanders. May need to turf Sexton to do so, which means I'll have 2 s**t forward rooks for a bit if I don't go Dempsey. If Sanders gets fwd DPP him and Dempsey can hold F5/6 for a bit while I fix Windhager/Zilliams/Massimo/Bonner/Fisher types through and after these final byes...

This won't cause issues unless he's sub lol.Clark did enough to kick start some cash gen but i would not be surprised to see him rested after a draining game and a 5 day break
The one I considered over Windy was Bramble. Would have been a great alternative, taken a ton, cash increase, low BE and still playing this week lol. Williams gets me nowhere other than Bramble and I think he may go ok against Freo (Mark Keane nearly tonned lol) so think its Windy and Billings out in that case.Billings to Someone - definitely
Sit on Windhager and see if Howes (E) score is loopable.
Then either Windy to Yeo or Another Spud (Williams) to a Jordan Clark/ J McGovern (depending on the size of your balls) if you can get there. Is my take. Or see my previous post .
The GC mids are all scoring nicely for their price, as is Steele. Green would be nice but if it prevents you getting Flanders next week then I'd go one of the others and lock in that F1 next week.Basically has been a semi easy decision trade wise
Ginbey to Thomas (and field Roberts, should have done that from the beginning but cest la vie) which leaves $297k for the second trade.
Which makes my second trade very interesting.
Do I go straight up to Libba to Green(Which leaves $110k for next week)
Or save a bit more and go for a Jelly, Anderson, Touk, Steele, Rowell type and it guarantees a Jordon to Flanders upgrade next week……
Jelly: leaves $247k
Anderson: leaves $234k
Touk: $264k
Rowell: leaves $270k
It’s a really hard call to make, Green is a must have but you need the cash to up your mid pricers, my bench rookies can wait until their byes to be downgraded too.
Yeah that was my thinking, going with one of them basically guarantees a straight swap whereas if I got Green I would have to do a downgrade to get Jordon up to Flanders. So I’ll likely go the $900s guys.The GC mids are all scoring nicely for their price, as is Steele.

If Yeo doesn't break he's gonna be a top 6 def I reckon.The one I considered over Windy was Bramble. Would have been a great alternative, taken a ton, cash increase, low BE and still playing this week lol. Williams gets me nowhere other than Bramble and I think he may go ok against Freo (Mark Keane nearly tonned lol) so think its Windy and Billings out in that case.
I do worry Yeo's PPM aren't sustainable at all and the injury risk. Great if you've been on him already and ride it out as you've already got 2 tons from him but could break any minute.
I think if we rest him it will be a full rest but Scott can be a bit of a dick with selections sometimes.This won't cause issues unless he's sub lol.
Would be nice to have him back week after to loop with Sharp as Roberts replacement.
Did you pick Bont as a keeper/top tier premo? If so, I wouldn't worry about him losing cash. I'd only look to trade if he's injured and misses or his scoring falls off a cliff.A bit unsure what to do this week, at the moment I've gone
Sexton > Powell
Bontempelli > N. Martin
Not 100% sure I'll stick with it, but Bont is bleeding cash.
A rest would be perfect. He's kick started cash gen, freshen him up and bring him back for the 2 bye rounds.I think if we rest him it will be a full rest but Scott can be a bit of a dick with selections sometimes.
We have had a tendency to not run our youngers guys into the ground over the last 5 or so years though and rest them when required.
He would 100% be getting a rest if i was in charge of selections this week for multiple reasons young, barely played any footy in 18 months until this year and Geelong seem to have a rotating policy on ground seen with most mids getting 60%-70% and only really the older ones getting 75%-80% really.
Yeah, I’m just not sure how else to upgrade Sexton/Jordan without trading a premo down, and Bont has been by far the worst performer out of my premosDid you pick Bont as a keeper/top tier premo? If so, I wouldn't worry about him losing cash. I'd only look to trade if he's injured and misses or his scoring falls off a cliff.
It's funny you mention Keane because I've actually been looking at him. Very cheap D6 option to fill the void until the DPPs come in.The one I considered over Windy was Bramble.

I reckon I'd be going with that option personally!Yeah, I’m just not sure how else to upgrade Sexton/Jordan without trading a premo down, and Bont has been by far the worst performer out of my premos
The only other idea I’ve had is trading out both Sexton and Jordan to replace them with Powell and Thomas from GWS
Isn't he under another head knock cloud? Or was that someone else?It's funny you mention Keane because I've actually been looking at him. Very cheap D6 option to fill the void until the DPPs come in.
Weirdly he's taken the most kick ins for Adelaide in the past 2 weeks (since he came into the team) and with Milera out he might get even more. Adelaide love to share the ball in their back 50. I can see him averaging 70 odd for the next few weeks until the early byes are over.
yeah there was definitely a head knock concern, was mentioned on the news last night but haven't heard anything sinceIsn't he under another head knock cloud? Or was that someone else?
Maybe I don't know. But you'd only pick him if he's in the team this week. He plays on the first game on Thursday so you will definitely know if he's a late out before you need to do anything else.Isn't he under another head knock cloud? Or was that someone else?
